Martin Fordī32 5 Window Build
In case you guys are ok with it I think it would be fun to make a tread about my on goin project.
I started with a very bad American Graffiti copy made sometimes in the ī80s. Still it is a reel steel coupe......with loads of bondo =) The only thing left for the project is the body and window moldings, the rest went down to the trash-can.  Here is what Ivé started with..

Re: Martin Fordī32 5 Window Build
Great save! Amazing what you can find when you go digging.
Tagging along for the ride, I want to see where this goes.

Re: Martin Fordī32 5 Window Build
I'd have to agree with those who say that this is a great save. I like what you have done and are planning on doing with it.
I have to disagree with Lowsquire though, I'm damn near as sick of black cars as I am of those Graffiti clones I like black as well as the next guy but you see photos of a Hamb related event and 70% of the vehicles there are black in one form or another.

Re: Martin Fordī32 5 Window Build
My plan is to build it fenderless with original style hood/hoodsides, thin exelcior comp-v tires.18" back and 17" up front. Donīt now what kind of wheels yet =(.
Two tone classic solid paint. Now I have a sb chevy for it, I know that a lot of people dont like it but thats the way it is. Had the motor "on the shelf" with only 1500 miles . My goal is to get a 409 but that wont be until the car is done, first of all I better spend money to get the car together so I can drive it and have some fun. No matter what kind of motor. Most important for me is to get the right stance and a overall well build car =) First I started with a new chassie, am-stamping rails, frontend from S.A.C, new 9" bellhousing and a firewall made in sweden. Bad pic =(

Re: Martin Fordī32 5 Window Build
If for some Strange reason I became a multi millionaire, i would buy up every steel 5W that has been turned into a clone of that shitful car, and undo the damage. Thankyou for helping rid the world of Milner Clones! you are a Good man.
oh, and DONT two tone it! Theres this really dark colour that works well on early Fords... its called black.
